"Celebrating Stanley" Poem - South Stanley Junior School
This poem was created by Livy, Layla, Liam and Harry, Year 6 pupils from South Stanley Junior School as part of our 'Celebrating Stanley' project. They were inspired by the importance of coming together to celebrate the town, honour past generations, and remember the people who helped shape its history. Ultimately this poem encourages unity, celebration, and pride in Stanley as a place to belong.

The Importance of Vocational Visits to Aid Employability in Young People
At Building Self-Belief, one of the many programmes is the ‘Bridging the Gap’ Youth Employability Programme. Recently, this programme was conducted with year 10 boys from Boldon School. The first few workshops centred around improving wellbeing, and then the boys prepared for their vocational visit by working on goal setting, CV making and considering what makes a good employee.
